Glen Dettman

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Glen Dettman is a promoter of the alternative medicine megavitamin therapy. The article is written very much like a résumé and appears to serve only to boost the prestige of a supporter of an alternative medicine adjacent to anti-vaccination. With regard to notability, the only references currently cited are an automatic WW2 Nominal Roll, a book written by Glen Dettman, and two obituaries in blogs. I could not find any reliable sources about Glen Dettman. He appears to fail WP:GNG/WP:BASIC and WP:NAUTHOR. userdude 06:47, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete as per nom. Teraplane (talk) 22:33, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, does not meet WP:ANYBIO (received well-known and significant award, made a widely recognised contribution, or entry in DNB or similar) or WP:BASIC (have received significant coverage in multiple sources), the article's references/external links do not show this and have been unable sources that do. Coolabahapple (talk) 11:43, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:NOTRESUME. LibStar (talk) 20:45, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete This subject looks as though it should be notable but while there is more than WP:EXISTS I cannot find material sufficient to support WP:NEXIST and hence nor GNG. I would consider changing my !vote if someone can find a couple of "good" sources. Aoziwe (talk) 13:00, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. I could not find a single mention of Dettman in a ProQuest database search of all Aust and NZ newspapers. However a Trove search revealed 2 books (1 currently already included in references) and 2 newspaper articles so I have added these as best I could. It feels like a weak weak keep to me now...

 * Yep I found those too. Just felt it was not enough though.  Like I wrote above looks as though it should be notable ....  The subject does not need much more to get over the bar ...  Aoziwe (talk) 10:59, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Yep I'm with you, just inclined to keep... Cabrils (talk) 22:39, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * All three books on Trove are at least coauthored by Dettman, thus cannot be used to establish notability per WP:SPIP. userdude 23:25, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
